Chapter 991 Three Years, Two Major Events

No matter when or where, strength is the bottom line.

Although Lin Xi is still a junior in the 'Monster Village', her strength is obviously very convincing, and several elders have been convinced by her.

Ji Xing also showed his sincerity. He called Zheng Xian in front of several people and turned on the radio to let them listen to the director of the S.H.I.E. Bureau's attitude towards mutants.

Moreover, Zheng Xian also gave them a piece of good news: "The United States has done very in-depth research on mutants, and established mutant schools to teach children in the early years.

Later, they extracted an 'antidote' from a mutant child, which could eliminate more than 99% of the mutant genes. Some mutants have since returned to normal life.

But I can’t guarantee you whether the medicine has any side effects or how to obtain it, but please rest assured that the research and development capabilities of Lanshi Technology Group are by no means inferior to those there.”

This couldn't have been prepared in advance, because Lin Xi, who grew up in the Monster Village, was absolutely trustworthy. They looked at each other, thinking that they had to fight for the future, and even prepared to kidnap Qi Xing and then bring in the army for negotiations. But it turned out that we were just thinking too much?

"That's a good thing." Lin Xi smiled and said, "I'm so sorry, Secretary Qi, can I still stay and work with you in this case?"

"It doesn't matter. You can't leave even if you want to." Ji Xing said, "The 'medical accident' in Baicheng was caused by you, right? All the losses caused will be deducted from your salary. I remember your current monthly salary plus bonuses is about 1.9 yuan? I will deduct yuan from you every month until the surgery fee is paid back."

Lin Xi's expression changed: "No...that was done by Uncle Niu and his men, they should pay for it!"

The Bull Demon King pretended to be hard of hearing and felt a little pressured, so that Xiaoxi could make it outside. Well, he was definitely not afraid of Lin Xi's power that could blow up a mountain.

……

The "kidnapping" was thus settled, and Lin Xi drove back to Baicheng. However, the two experts had not woken up yet, and they probably looked confused when they arrived at the place.

In the car, Lin Xi told Ji Xing about her experiences and the experiences that the monsters in the village had told her, and she didn't realize that Ji Xing had quietly "changed into a different person".

Sitting in the passenger seat was his hair clone, while his real body was holding the golden cudgel and walked into the Changbai Mountain next to the monster village!

There are too many 'animal-type' mutants.

Ji Xing has seen the X-Men series and movies such as Wolverine and Deadpool with mutants as the protagonists. There are indeed many different types of mutants, but most of them are able to hide their peculiarities in their daily lives.

Just like the most famous Wolverine, when he doesn't extend his claws, he is just a tough guy and no one can tell anything is abnormal about him.

However, in the monster village, nearly half of them have characteristics of some animal, and they cannot take them back. This is obviously abnormal.

His Fiery Eyes opened, and he captured a faint wisp of "evil spirit" deep in the mountain. Ji Xing leaped nimbly, quickly climbed over two hills, and arrived at the place where the evil spirit was.

It was a small temple.

I don't know when it was built, but judging by the degree of dilapidation, it is definitely more than 80 years old and is on the verge of collapse. The surrounding area is overgrown with trees and weeds, and it is even difficult to tell which way the temple door faces.

Ji Xing swept the golden hoop across, using this "peerless sword" to cut all the weeds, found the door and walked in.

The debris in the temple has basically decayed, and there are spider webs everywhere. The most eye-catching thing is a statue right in front, or rather a statue of a god.

The statue was as clean as new. It was made of white jade and was carved of a kind-looking white-haired old lady. Ji Xing recognized her at a glance. It was Old Lady Bai, the White Fairy, one of the Five Fairies of the Northeast.

That is the Hedgehog Fairy.

According to legend, Bai Xian'er can drive away evil spirits and protect the family's safety and health, so there are quite a lot of people in the Northeast who worship Old Lady Bai.

But this one...

hum-

As if it sensed Ji Xing's arrival, the statue of the old lady opened her eyes, with a strange look in her eyes, and spoke in human language: "Human, do you think I look like a human or a god?!"

The words with strange spiritual energy drilled into Ji Xing's mind. Ji Xing shook his head and smiled: "The cuckoo took over the magpie's nest, and it turned out to be a weasel."

The golden hoop was waving, and the white jade statue was instantly exploded into powder. One of the golden-furred beasts nimbly leaped away, emitting a nerve-piercing scream: "Damn it! You're ruining my practice!"

He waved his claws, and a sharp blade like the moonlight slashed out. Ji Xing waved his golden hoop to block it, a little surprised: "It's quite powerful. The people in the Monster Village are all human, but this can really be called a monster... The power of faith?"

The sharp blades that attacked him were all shattered by him, but there was still some energy left to slash at the temple. After a few crackling sounds, the shaky beams finally couldn't hold on and broke and collapsed along with the temple!

Even though the weasel demon rushed out, Ji Xing was buried in it. Looking at the billowing smoke and dust, the weasel demon showed human-like anger on his face.

"Damn humans..."

Bang!

The next moment, it heard the whistling of wind in the air!

It had no time to react at all and was blasted away by the golden cudgel, crashing into a hill three hundred meters away. It vomited blood and a look of horror appeared on its face.

"No! Spare me..."

Its plea for mercy was interrupted by Ji Xing's leaping up and the pressing down of the golden hoop stick. Amid the earthquake, the hill was flattened and the weasel spirit was crushed into a pool of blood foam, dying a thorough death!

Ji Xing retracted the extended golden hoop, frowned and looked back at the collapsed temple.

The weasel spirit can release a power that disrupts the mind. The mutants living nearby are affected by it, so it is normal for the mutant power to become more manifest, but the appearance of this weasel spirit is abnormal.

It is not easy for a cuckoo to occupy a magpie's nest, not to mention where does the faith in this abandoned temple come from? There is no one living in this deep mountain. Except for special cases like the Monster Village, who would go here?

Who built that temple?

It had been dozens or even hundreds of years since then, and even if Ji Xing was curious, he had no way to investigate it for the time being. He just kept it in mind for the time being.

Separated by two hills, the people in the Monster Village had no idea what was happening here, but they could hear the loud noise when Ji Xing flattened the mountain with his stick.

The Bull Demon King was stunned for several seconds, then rushed out in a panic: "Old Spider! Don't mess around! Xiao Xi will really blow you away!"

"How could I..." Spider-Man was puzzled for a moment, his face changed: "What did you say that noise just now was..."

“Who else could it be other than Xiaoxi?” The Bull Demon King shook his head and said, “It’s strange. When she was a child, even five years ago, she wasn’t this exaggerated. Her power seems to be able to grow endlessly…”

……

On the other side, in the United States, on a farm.

The gray-haired old man was watching a satellite image on his laptop.

Suddenly, a beam of pure white light shot out from the blue earth, almost brushing past the satellite and shooting towards the other side of the starry sky!

"Alpha(5) level mutant?"

This person is Magneto!

He is the most well-known and notorious mutant on Earth. Because of certain experiences in his early years, he came to hate humans and wanted to destroy humans and create a new world.

However, he failed repeatedly due to the obstruction of the X-Men led by his old friend and old rival Professor X. Eight years ago, he was injected with a drug that eliminated mutant abilities and turned into an ordinary person.

So the mutant world in the United States has become increasingly quiet over the years.

However, Magneto is a powerful level 4 mutant after all. Although he was given four injections, his abilities were not completely eliminated.

With a few years of recuperation, his ability has recovered to level three, close to level four. He was preparing to return to the arena to continue his unfinished career, but he received this video from the military forces he secretly controlled.

"The launch site is in northeastern China. It seems like a protest. Haven't all the mutants in that country been absorbed by the superhero organization S.H.I.E.? And there are actually level 5 mutants. I've never heard of them before..."

Magneto pondered for a while, then raised his eyebrow slightly: "Huh, because of the birth of the Mecha Corps, the power of mutants is no longer needed? Such things are happening in every country and every era."

This is an opportunity.

There are very few mutants who surpass level 5, and most of them are limited editions born by chance. Level 5 mutants basically symbolize absolute power. Those X-Men and superheroes are hardly their opponents! As long as I get her help, I will succeed this time!

He prepared himself, created a fake identity, and flew to Daxing Airport in the Chinese capital. Just as he was about to contact the person who had been prepared to pick him up and go to the northeast to look for clues about the Level 5 mutant, two armed police officers at the airport suddenly stopped him.

"Old man, please wait a moment."

It was in English, so Magneto could understand. He frowned slightly and said, "What?"

Two armed police officers took out an instrument and said, "Please cooperate with us."

Magneto resisted the urge to attack, confident in his own disguise, but then he heard a shrill alarm from the instrument and saw a red light!

"..."

"..."

After a brief silence, the two armed police officers immediately stepped back. Other passengers and passers-by in the vicinity also hurriedly retreated and watched the excitement from a distance.

The next moment, several armed police officers in mechas flew into the air and surrounded Magneto!

"Eric Lanchel!"

When his name was called accurately, Magneto no longer had any hope. He looked at the instrument he had never seen before with a gloomy face, and heard the mecha armed police say in a deep voice: "You are on the aviation banned list! We don't care how you came to China from the United States, but China does not welcome you. Please do not resist, we will send you back to your country!"

Magneto hooked his finger.

It can be said that these mecha soldiers and big iron shells will be completely restrained by his magnetic force. He can break through the encirclement of these people with a wave of his hand!

But...then what?

How could you, all alone and with only a few powerless secret agents and assistants, break out of the Chinese capital?

"Damn..."

After weighing the pros and cons for a while, Magneto could only raise his hands in hatred and let the armed police take him away. He was put on a plane and sent back to his country in the evening of the same day.

After landing in the United States, he met his old friend and arch-enemy Professor X at the airport.

Eight years later, Professor X in the wheelchair has obviously aged a lot, which makes Magneto, who has known him since he was young, look a little depressed: "Look at you, you have aged beyond recognition."

Professor X smiled and said, "Didn't you look in the mirror and see how many gray hairs you have?"

Magneto was silent.

Professor X continued, "I thought you had begun to enjoy your old age and give up the hatred of your youth, but I didn't expect you still had some ideas.

What is there in China that is worth your personal visit? Actually, I am also curious. They recently negotiated with us for X drug. "

"...Oh, it's true." Magneto snorted and laughed: "When they need us, they use us, and when they don't need us, they would rather we lose our power. This is the bad nature of human beings!

Use your brain, they asked for X potion, what else could they do? As for what I did in the past, of course, I noticed that there were mutants resisting, so I went to help them! "

Professor X's expression was a bit heavy. In fact, he also had concerns in this regard, but in recent years, X-Potion had been provided to many countries. When they asked for it, there was no reason for them not to give it, not to mention that SHIELD also wanted to exchange something.

“But you didn’t even leave the airport.”

"...Yes." Magneto admitted directly: "We can't do anything. You and I can't do anything."

Professor X was silent for a long time and then sighed.

"I hope they won't go too far."

……

"Of course it's voluntary."

In a laboratory, Ji Xing said to Lin Xi who was wearing a cleanroom suit, "After we confirm that the 'antidote' is safe, we support you if you are willing to lose your abilities and become a normal person. We also don't object if you want to keep your abilities. Just file a record with the Shenmao Bureau and don't do anything out of line."

Lin Xi had no idea that there were "kind people" on the other side of the ocean who were worried about them. When she heard Ji Xing's answer, she nodded without any doubt.

"And the effectiveness of the antidote must also have its limits. With an ability as strong as yours, I think it would be difficult to eliminate it with just one or two injections, or even eight or ten injections. If you don't want the ability, I'm afraid that the old saying will come true: there's not a drop of urine in the stimulant, and not a drop of blood in the medicine."

Lin Xi laughed: "I won't cause you any more trouble. It's good to have the ability of 'photosynthesis'. At least you won't starve to death if you're thrown into the mountains."

Ji Xing shook his head and took her to see the experts to analyze the antidote to the source serum that could eliminate mutant abilities, so that she would have an idea.

In the next few months, Lan's Technology divided up two teams to do this specifically. They collected blood from everyone in the Monster Village, conducted special analysis, and worked hard to develop an 'antidote' for each person.

The next two years were peaceful.

Everyone in the monster village has eliminated their strange appearance and is trying to blend in with ordinary people.

The Hydra Rebellion and Winter Soldier incidents in the United States have nothing to do with China, which is far away in the East. Except for special events such as alien invasions, this country has always been the most stable... After all, a guy like Magneto who can cause trouble can't even leave the airport!

The time came to November 2017.

Two major events happened within a week.

An incident happened in the universe, where the Elder Collector of the Universe was killed, and the 'Reality Gem' he collected was taken away after the Nine Realms Invasion!

One thing happened on Earth, in many places in Asia, there were dilapidated temples emitting strange evil spirits, causing chaos in the local area. If Ji Xing went to the scene, he would definitely find that it was basically the same as when he cleared the weasel monster in Changbai Mountain!
